Twistor--like Formulation of D=10, type IIA, Superstrings *

Abstract

The twistor--like formulation of the type IIA superstring σ--model in D=10 is obtained by performing a dimensional reduction of the recently proposed twistor--like action of the supermembrane in D=11. The superstring action is invariant under local, worldsheet (n,n) supersymmetry where 3≤ n ≤ 8 and is classical equivalent to the standard Green--Schwarz action (at least for n=8)
